An urban component necessary to change the image of neighborhoods
The Burgundy region is exemplary, nationally, for his involvement in projects
urban renewal . First considerably boosted in 2005 by a plan of € 43 million, the financial outlay has been increased to € 90 million in June 2006 as part of a partnership agreement signed with the National Agency for Urban Renewal ( ANRU), July 13, 2006. This unprecedented agreement allows the 23 districts of Burgundy be integrated into this important national program and receive grants to radically change their image by promoting, inter alia, construction of public housing with a requirement of sustainable development.

urban renewal . The Burgundy Regional Council has decided to continue our partnership for cities or towns to support them in achieving their project
social cohesion by acting primarily on employability, entrepreneurship and business, access to culture, sports, health and support projects
urban renewal (Awareness of energy conservation and local urban management). The annual commitment through 2013 amounted to € 1.1 million mainly benefiting the nonprofit sector.
Finally, and in situations of crisis experienced by some districts, the regional council has decided to respond by implementing new features like
Help Fund Projects to (FAP) and
Intervention Fund Proximity (FIP) contracts or even resources.

These investments may cover the areas of security, cleanliness, friendliness, service, etc..
These two devices, flexible and fast, involving the territory of Commons carrying a redevelopment project or beneficiaries of a contract of agglomeration or social cohesion or part of which is located in sensitive urban zones.
